Biological Activity for Resiquimod

Resiquimod is a toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist. Induces upregulation of IL-6, IL-12, IFN-γ and iNOS expression in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). Inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation in mouse BMMs and human peripheral blood monocytes. Also promotes the differentiation of MDSCs into macrophages and dendritic cells. Proinflammatory and antiviral.
